[Chorus 1]
This ain't a threat, but I think I better warn ya
Gonna fall in love if you go to California
I did, and this is how I know

[Verse 1]
By the beach north of San Jose
Met the right girl, and it sounds cliche
But we decided not to take it slow
I said, "Why wait? You're my soulmate"
Took her by the hand in the Golden State
Now that you're mine, things are gonna be fine
First came love, then a baby carriage
Hardly knew the people at my own damn marriage
But an open bar can open your mind

[Chorus 2]
You save my life with every word you say
You shine your light for me to find the way
Just hold me tight and cross your heart to stay
Here with me born to be
Every part of you in Half Moon Bay

[Verse 2]
Up in Tiburon where the girls are warm
We stay inside while the rain clouds form
And thank God for rainy days like these
And just when the time has come to retire
Baby starts crying so we dance by the fire
Always does the trick, you better believe

[Chorus 2]
You save my life with every word you say
You shine your light for me to find the way
Just hold me tight and cross your heart to stay
Here with me born to be
Every part of you

[Bridge]
Why go slow if it's nice and steady?
We all know it's in the stars already
Oh ohh oh ohhhh
Why say no if yes feels right?
You just got to go where it feels like home

[Chorus 1]
This ain't a threat, but I think I better warn ya
Gonna fall in love if you go to California
I did, and this is how I know

[Chorus 2]
You save my life with every word you say
You shine your light for me to find the way
Just hold me tight and cross your heart to stay
Here with me born to be
Every part of you

You save my life with every word you say
You shine your light so I can find my way
Just hold me tight and cross your heart to stay
Here with me born to be
Every part of you in Half Moon Bay
Half Moon Bay
Half mmmhm
Half Moon Bay

Train

Train is an American rock band from San Francisco, formed in 1993. The band currently consists of Patrick Monahan (lead vocals), Luis Maldonado (guitar), Hector Maldonado (bass, vocals), Drew Shoals (drums), Jerry Becker (keyboards, guitar), Sakai Smith (backup vocals), and Nikita Houston (backup vocals).

With a lineup that included original members Monahan, Rob Hotchkiss, Jimmy Stafford, Scott Underwood, and Charlie Colin, the band achieved mainstream success with their debut album Train, which was released in 1998 with the hit “Meet Virginia”. Train’s 2001 album, Drops of Jupiter contained the lead single “Drops of Jupiter (Tell Me)”, which won two Grammy Awards in 2002. The album was certified double platinum in the United States and Canada and remains the band’s best-selling album to date.

Train’s third studio album, My Private Nation, released in 2003, was certified platinum in the United States with the hit “Calling All Angels”. Following the departures of Hotchkiss and Colin, the band released their fourth album, For Me, It’s You in 2006, with Brandon Bush (keyboards) and Johnny Colt (bass). Despite a generally positive reception from critics, the album was commercially unsuccessful. Because of this, Train went on a two-year hiatus from recording any new music.
